Cabaret Subverso

Paul Vs Ollie on the joys or irritations of Christmas! Well more of an in depth look at the possible pitfalls of the festive season with Paul taking the mantle of Scrooge and Ollie being Scrooge after he has been scared into loving Christmas (or perhaps loving it from the get go with no fear coercion). Paul has a list and it’s not a list of who’s naughty and nice but one that details his pet gripes about Christmas from it all starting way too early to giving presents that nobody wants. It’s all here and a perfect gift for anyone who is unsure what Christmas is all about.

"My mate was telling me a friend of his got bitten by an insect while he was on holiday, on his face it was. When he came back he was scractching like fuck and a big boil started growing and then it popped and lots of little insects came out! Swear to God it's true! This was the same guy that got his kidney stolen by a girl he met at a club. She spiked his drink and when he woke up he was in a bath of ice with a big stitched up wound on his back..." We all know an Urban myth or two - we may even know somebody who has told us one, sure that it really did happen to a friend of a friend of theirs! Cabaret Subverso takes a look into the murky well of Urban Myths and sees if it can retrieve a bucket of truth from its depths! From escaped lunatics to 'Paul is Dead' and MoMo to exploding dogs - they are all here and some have even been dramatised! Enjoy!

The undead are upon us. Wherever you look a zombie is lurking! But what do these foul, shuffling, rotting ghouls represent? Cabaret Subverso attempts to peel back the layers of this grotesque onion of death to find what is lurking in the middle of this gruesome bulb. Do zombies represent our fear of death? Our fear of immigrants? Or even our fear of consumerism? These questions are raised by Oliver Double and Paul Elliott and the conclusions they reach may shock you to your very core...
